Upcoming Projects

It has been a while since I last posted what I have been working on. Well, as I finally finished putting my office and game room into some sort of semblance, I got around to taking some pictures of my current projects.

Project #1: Night Goblin Army
I am currently working on an all Night Goblin army to play for fun at tournaments when I want a much more relaxed weekend. As part of this project I have purchased several Forgeworld models. Including this one, which I am in the process of putting together:

I managed to pick up two of these awesome models and they are going to represent Doom Divers in my army.

Project #2: Paint Contest Miniatures
I have also recently entered a paint contest at my FLGS, Heroes Games, and have decided to enter two miniatures in the contest. The contest is for single, man-sized model (from any manufacturer) and I have chosen the Lizardmen Saurus hero and the Chaos 40k champion to work on some blending, line highlighting, and non-metallic metal techniques. I will see how it goes as I have until October 5, 2013 to turn the models in. As of right now, the models have been put together.

BAO 2013: Round #2 - Lizardmen

For Round 2 of the BAO I was playing Sean Smaker from Sacramento, California.

Sean (left) is a smart and fun player who plays a list with similar style to my all fast cavalry army, except his army is based around skirmished units of skinks.










I was surprised to see Sean as my opponent for Round 2 as I knew he was great player and usually ends a tournament with a winning record. It turned out that Sean had won his game, so instead of playing someone with a similar losing record, I got to play Sean. And not only had Sean won his game, but he did so with a full 150 points. So even with pulling me up from the losers bracket (at a mighty 75 points) I should never have played him. This was the third major fault of the tournament and the day wasn't even half over.

Sean's army for this tournament was a heavy skink list with lots of skirmishers and poisoned attacks. It is a very difficult army to get points off of, and he plays it extremely well. It is also beautifully painted and themed (as the pictures from our Round and at the bottom of the post will show). His army for the tournament was as follows:

Books #4

Another few months have passed, and I have managed to read quite a collection of books since the last time I posted my last mini-reviews. Here is what I have finished lately:

Army Profile #1: Dave Bendarek - Wood Elves

These are some pictures I took at WaaaghPaca 2013 that had disappeared on my desktop. I found them recently and decided it was time to put them up. This Wood Elf army belongs to Dave Bendarek and involves lots of conversions as well as a very nice Winter theme.

Quake City Rumble: Final Wrap-up

Well, the Quake is over and done with. The results are up and my games are logged. All that is left to do is show off some of the amazing armies and models that were at this year's Quake. So without further ado, here you go:
